After a thrilling day’s game viewing, there is nothing to beat the blissful comfort of a sundowner – drink in hand. As your guide/camp/lodge crew set up a vantage point from which to watch darkness fall, the idea of wild luxury has become a wondrous reality.

Around the park, we are blessed by several glorious spots from which to see the sunset. Some lies beneath a beautiful acacia. Another maximises the breadth and scope of the grasslands or on the Serengeti rock outcrops. Each creates stunning vistas and wonderful memories, as you watch darkness fall across the timeless landscape.

An alternative way to bid farewell to the setting sun can be found closer to home, with a sundowner enjoyed in the Camp/lodge. Sit back, sip something refreshing and let the landscape seep into your soul, watching the deepening blues of the sky become streaked by a palette of reds and golds. This is Africa at its most beguiling.

Or why not ask your butler to bring your favouriteSundowner to your tent, enjoying bubble and nibbles from the comfort of your sunken lounge or private hot tub. What a way to bridge the gap between the day’s adventures and dinner!
